App Download via Sharing Terminal Intermediary
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing methods for downloading applications are inefficient due to the lack of targeted promotion, leading to low user experience and potential adverse effects on terminals, as users must trial multiple applications to find a suitable one, and rogue applications can harm the terminal.
Innovation Solution
A method and system where a downloading terminal sends an application sharing request to a sharing terminal to obtain application information, allowing for direct downloading of the corresponding application, thereby improving promotion efficiency and user experience while avoiding terminal damage.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If users download applications one by one from the backend server for trial, then users can find a satisfying application, but the promotion efficiency of applications is reduced and user experience is degraded
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a sharing terminal as an intermediary between the backend server and the downloading terminal. The sharing terminal stores application information and provides it to the downloading terminal, enabling targeted promotion while maintaining ease of operation. This intermediary structure resolves the contradiction by allowing efficient targeted promotion without compromising user experience.
Solution Approach 2:
The sharing terminal preliminarily stores and organizes application information before the downloading terminal needs it. By pre-preparing and organizing application information in a structured manner, the system enables efficient targeted promotion while ensuring users can easily access the information they need without having to trial multiple applications.
2Adaptability or versatility
If users trial multiple applications to find a satisfying one, then users can select the right application, but time is wasted and promotion efficiency is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The sharing terminal acts as an intermediary that provides pre-organized application information to the downloading terminal. This structure enables users to efficiently select applications without time-consuming trials, as the information is already prepared and organized in a usable format.
Solution Approach 2:
Application information is preliminarily collected, organized, and made available in the sharing terminal before the user needs it. This preliminary action eliminates the need for users to trial multiple applications, significantly reducing time loss while maintaining the ability to select from diverse applications.
3Reliability
If the backend server consolidately manages all applications, then applications can be centrally controlled, but targeted promotion is difficult and promotion efficiency is low
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the application management function by introducing a sharing terminal that handles application information storage and distribution. This segmentation allows the backend server to maintain centralized control while the sharing terminal enables targeted promotion by providing organized application information to specific terminals.
Solution Approach 2:
The sharing terminal serves as an intermediary between the backend server's centralized management and the individual downloading terminals. This intermediary structure preserves the reliability of centralized management while significantly improving promotion efficiency by enabling targeted information delivery.
4Ease of operation
If rogue applications are downloaded for trial, then users can evaluate applications, but adverse effects are caused to the terminal
Solution Approach 1:
The sharing terminal acts as a trusted intermediary that provides application information to the downloading terminal. By using this intermediary structure, users can evaluate applications through organized information without directly downloading potentially harmful rogue applications, thus avoiding terminal damage while maintaining evaluation capability.
Solution Approach 2:
Application information is preliminarily organized and made available in the sharing terminal before download. This preliminary action allows users to evaluate applications through structured information without the risk of downloading and installing rogue applications, eliminating terminal damage while preserving evaluation functionality.
